Press 4($).
Pressing SYSTEME COULEUR during NTSC playback
displays "NTSC" on the screen for about 5 seconds.
Some TVs shrink the picture vertically and place
black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. This is
not a malfunction on the part of either the video
recorder or the TV.
The picture may roll up and down. This can be
corrected using the V-HOLD control found on some
TVs. (This cannot be corrected if the TV does not
have a V-HOLD control.)
The counter and tape remaining time readings will be
incorrect.
During search, still, or frame-by-frame playback, the
picture will be distorted, and there may be a loss of
colour.
Depending on the type of TV, the top and bottom
portions of superimposed displays may be cut off
during NTSC playback.
